Ragnarok's radiation-hardened (RH) reconfigurable Flight Computer (FC) for SmallSats sustains > 300 krads of TID and > 84 MeV-cm^2/mg SEE as a crucial part of the GN&C system that supports ADCS and C&DH using a Fault-Tolerant synthesizable processor. Using the latest 28nm technology, the RHFC consumes less power over SRAM-based FCs and operates faster than its predecessor. The radiation-hardened F ...

In-orbit servicing, assembly, and manufacturing (ISAM) technologies are taking the space industry by storm and will undoubtedly shape the future industry. These ISAM services generally focus around providing mobility for different spacecraft improving lif

The space domain is changing with in-orbit servicing, assembly, and maintenance (ISAM) technologies quickly dominating new spacecraft designs and developments. A future space economy undoubtedly will be based around ISAM services for satellites. As these

The US Space Force (SF) wishes to advance existing dual-purpose interface technology for its modernization priorities in broadly identified segments. A rad-hard SerDes is a “must” technology to have in any electronic system, or a set of systems, in which

The Technical Problem: The Air Force Nuclear Weapons Center (AFNWC) and the broader Department of Defense (DOD) require operational agility that can only be achieved through the implementation of Software Defined Weapon Systems. In today's modern systems,

  The proposed technology provides airspace awareness for small Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (sUAS) that adversaries use to identify troop locations, drop munitions, or target artillery.   AeroDefense proposes to miniaturize existing man-portable sUAS detect

Classifying and marking documents in the Department of Defense is largely a manual process. Manual classification is challenging, time-consuming, resource-intensive, and sometimes inconsistent. Recent advancements in AI and large language models (LLMs) ar

The Air Force requires a digital test planning tool to reduce the cost, time, and effort required to develop a modern weapon or defense system.  The proposed test planning tool would allow for simulation of the test via a digital twin for use in optimizin

A software package known as Anomaly Detection Actively ProTecting-Security (ADAPT-Security) is proposed to detect anomalies in multivariate time series and perform diagnostics for observed anomalous patterns. The algorithms are designed to be implementabl

DoD’s 2018 Artificial Intelligence (AI) Strategy [1] noted that adversaries and strategic competitors such as China and Russia are making significant investments in AI technologies for national security purposes. Since 2018, DoD has made organizational changes and is investing billions of dollars to incorporate AI technology into its operations. However, there exists a potential for unintended c ...
